The Committee having in charge the preparation of 
this Catalogue are exceedingly desirous that members 
and others interested should give it a careful exami- 
nation, so that, in the Immortal UoIttttU shortly 
to be issued, errors may be corrected and omissions 
supplied. 

The memorial volume will contain, in addition to the 
biographies of members, some account of the family of 
each ; and members having such facts in their pos- 
session, who have not already communicated them, 
are requested to forward them as soon as possible to 
Francis S. Drake, at the Rooms of the New England 
Historic-Genealogical Society, No. 18 Somerset Street, 
Boston. 

The Committee also desire that portraits of the original 
members should accompany the notices of them in the 
volume, and request that such engravings as are in ex- 
istence will be placed at their disposal for this purpose. 
Where paintings alone exist, it is hoped that their pos- 
sessors will avail themselves of so excellent an oppor- 
tunity as this, and cause them to be engraved for the 
work.
